Windows Forum / Windows 98 / General Topics / November 2006Video capture card in Win98SE?
Can anyone recommend a video capture card, including drivers, that is known to work in Win98SE? I recently purchased on eBay a no-name capture card (with Philips SAA7134 chip) whose seller's system requirements included Win98, but I could not get the supplied drivers, or any I could find on the Web, to install in Win98SE; they appeared to be designed only for Win2000 and XP. Also, please suggest any other newsgroups where this question is likely to be answered.

Any ATI Radeon All in Wonder video card will have Win-98 drivers and will perform video capture. If you have a video camera or cam-corder that has fire-wire, you might be able to feed a video signal into the video-in of the camera and send the video stream to a PC in real time via the fire-wire interface. > Can anyone recommend a video capture card, including drivers, that >is known to work in Win98SE?

Philips' datasheet for the SAA7134 chip ... http://www.nxp.com/acrobat/datasheets/SAA7134HL_4.pdf http://www.nxp.com/pip/SAA7134HL_V1.html ... states that "Windows 98 Device access is contained with a kernel-mode Windows Driver Model (WDM) driver. The capture driver interface is also kernel-mode WDM". It goes on to say that "the [Win ME/2K/XP] driver is binary-compatible with the Windows 98 driver". > Also, please suggest any other newsgroups where this question is >likely to be answered. You may be able to identify the card's manufacturer by its FCC ID: https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/cf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm Otherwise, if it is a PCI card, then search for its Vendor and Device IDs at the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Enum\PCI Post back here, or use PCItree to identify your device: http://www.pcitree.de/ Otherwise here is a possible generic driver: http://www.driverskit.net/freedownload/Video_Card/Kworld/Xpert_TV7134_TV7133_TV7 130_PCI_2_3_1_1/Xpert_TV7134_TV7133_TV7130_PCI_2_3_1_1/get10813.html? or http://tinyurl.com/y64qs7 - Franc Zabkar SignaturePlease remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email. >> Can anyone recommend a video capture card, including drivers, that=20 >>is known to work in Win98SE?

Unfortunately, I have already returned the card for refund, and am now looking for another type that I can install without such complications. I don't think it even had an FCC ID number on it.
